The Organic Coffee Co. DECAF Gorilla Whole Bean Coffee, 2 lb bag

These decaf coffee beans are absolutely delicious — rich, flavorful, and with an amazing aroma. When the price went up, I tried several other brands, but nothing compares to this one. Honestly, it tastes better than many regular coffees that aren’t even decaffeinated. I also love that it’s water processed. Worth every penny for a great cup of decaf coffee.

Love this decaf - great flavor and a great price. I like that it's water process decaf, so it doesn't have that off flavor that so many decafs have. It works great in my super automatic - it's not too oily. Flavor is good - pretty smooth but also has some complexity to it.

I'm always on the hunt for a good, whole bean, organic decaf, so decided to give this one a try. First, the good stuff: The quality is definitely there. When I opened the bag, the beans had a great, fresh aroma, and they looked rich and uniform with very few broken pieces. After grinding and pulling a few shots (americano's via the espresso machine), the flavor is smooth, full-bodied. It's a clean-tasting coffee. My only heads-up for other buyers is about the roast level. It's labeled as a "medium roast," but these are definitely on the dark side of the spectrum. The beans have a noticeable oily sheen, and the flavor profile is much closer to a French or Italian roast—very low acidity with heavy, dark chocolate notes and a smoky finish. Now, if you LIKE a dark, bold decaf, you'll probably think this is 5-star coffee. It's delicious for what it is. I'm giving it 4 stars because the quality is clearly there, and I will happily drink the whole bag. I just had to knock a star off because it wasn't the true medium roast with the brighter notes I was hoping for. Bottom line: A high-quality, tasty organic decaf. Just be aware you're getting a much darker, bolder cup than "medium" implies.

Great tasting coffee at a great taste. Are there better coffees? You betcha. They cost almost twice as much, tho and I like this stuff just fine. Plus the name Gorilla makes me feel like a wild and savage animal starting a full day of chest thumping and showing people I’m at the top of the food chain.

Decaf, organic, water processed and medium light roast checked all the boxes to give that a try. However the color and just the smell alone gave it almost away. Grinded and tried as a pour over as well as espresso confirmed it’s a dark roast coffee. To bitter and to the point where it tastes burned to me. Not my taste but maybe someone else’s. 3 points for incorrect advertising. Also, came in the same box with floor cleaner and termite poison. Not sure what the logic is here but that can’t be. However that is a shipping and logistics issue and not a coffee issue. Just saying anyway.

I've bought the Gorilla Decaf for a couple of years now because it's the cheapest of the varieties they sell, and I don't like spending a ton of money on coffee. Absolutely the best decaf I've had. I hosted a birthday party a little while ago and served it to everyone after dinner. Everyone wanted to be sure it was decaf and didn't believe that it was because it tastes too good to be decaf. Love it and appreciate that is also organic.

This coffee is marketed as a medium roast, but the beans tell a different story. True medium-roast beans are typically a lighter brown color with a dry surface. These beans are very dark, almost black, and noticeably oily—characteristics commonly associated with a dark roast. Based on the appearance and roast profile of the beans, this product does not match what I would expect from a medium roast.

One of my favorites that I keep going back to. My husband prefers a decaf medium roast, but he’ll tolerate this one. Seems to be gentle on the stomach in regards to acidity. Not sure about the quality but you can’t beat the flavor for the price.
